John,

Meet Sophia San Luis.

Sophia is a lawyer working to improve public health in the Philippines. She's the executive director of our partner organization ImagineLaw, Inc., which designs and advocates for policies to help Filipinos live healthy and meaningful lives. With ImagineLaw, Sophia manages our Global Health Advocacy Incubator’s work to improve health data collection throughout the country, helping government agencies make informed policy decisions. She also manages our tobacco control work and in the past has assisted with GHAI’s road safety work there. Before founding ImagineLaw, Sophia served as a legislative consultant for the Senate of the Philippines, and for the Office of the Vice Mayor of one of the country’s largest cities.

“When I see problems in public health, I want to find solutions for them.”

As part of our 25th anniversary celebration, our Voices in the Fight profile series showcases the incredible power of advocates we've worked with over the years. Look out for a new profile every other Wednesday through May 5th, when we cap off our year-long anniversary celebration in-person at this year’s Youth Advocates of the Year Awards!
